WANTED: Arai RX-7 Corsair Panther helmet, size M
I recently saw this helmet and fell in love with it.......there are absolutely no cat helmet designs out there, till I spotted this one. But of course (I'm admitting....) I don't want to pay $600+ for a helmet! If anyone sees a good deal on one, let me know. I know it's a long shot- I think it may be last year's design.

First place Id check would be ebay, esp if it is last years design. I just saw one at a local ducati dealer but I think it was still full price. I can probably find the number if you need it to find the price and see if they can ship it to you or something.

There is one on e-bay. It's an '05/'06 model and I asked if it was ever a display model. They said it was, and it's still about $625. I don't think I'd want one that was sitting out for goodness knows how long.

The Arais are pricey, for sure, but WELL worth it. Being a recent Arai convert myself, I can say there's probably no other lid I'd be comfortable in.
First off, have you tried the RX-7 on yet (to know if it fits your head properly)? If it does, as said, I'd check Ebay, and I'd also call The Helmet Shop in Daytona Beach, FL. They have a website, but the prices on their website aren't nearly as good as what they'll quote you by phone or in person, so just call em. |
Make sure the Arai brand fits your head shape. Arai is for a completely different shaped head than Shoei or Suomy.
|
Very true. I was going to buy an arai, until I tried it on. I now have a shoei in my room.
|
I do plan to try one on this weekend. My husband has an Arai size S that doesn't fit me too badly, but I know I'd need a M.
|
If the shape of his fits you well then it should be fine. The shape wont change much and the medium will probably feel a lot like his broken in small since its still new.
